"I strive to be super consistent — as consistent as I can be. Whenever I have a day off, I will make a point to work out in the morning,” Camila recently told Shape. Even when she can’t get a full workout in, she makes sure to stay active, “I definitely move my body every day,” she added Health.

2. She Takes Classes, Plays Tennis, and Does Circuit Training

Camila maintains variety with exercise. “I go through phases when it comes to what I like to do—I've taken lots of different classes and all that,” she told Health. She also works with a trainer and during their workouts "does a lot of circuit training, she added to Shape. She also plays tennis.

3. She Uses a Theragun

Camila is a big fan of using a Theragun post workout sessions. "She really gets into my hamstrings. I laugh uncontrollably every time (because it's really painful!) but it's also ticklish. It adds to my routine and I like giving attention to my body in that sort of way," she told Shape.

4. She Meditates

Camila takes me time when things get "overwhelming" at work. "I'll text production and say, 'Hey I'm going to meditate in my trailer for ten minutes. Please don't knock unless it's urgent.' And then I turn off all the lights, sit on the floor, take out my phone, and meditate using the Balance app,” she told Shape. “For me, it's taking care of myself in the most immediate way,” she added to Health. “What do I need—and what does my body need right now? Sometimes I'll randomly sit down and check in and be like: ‘What does my body want? Do I need water, sleep, or to move around and stretch? Should I journal?’ I think being well is about checking in with your physical and mental health and evaluating what you really need at that moment.”

5. She Doesn’t Diet

“My relationship with food was very weird for a while—I had an eating disorder,” she told Health. “I got through it by seeing [my] therapist and working with a nutritionist who was very adamant about me overcoming my fear of carbs. I used to not eat carbs—but that would just lead me to binge on them after avoiding them for a while. I tried all the diets—I was always on a diet. But I eventually learned they weren't helping me at all.”

6. She Eats for Nourishment

Camila focuses on nourishing her body with food. “As soon as I started listening to my body and eating what my body needed—which sometimes is eating the things I used to think were bad, like sugar and bread—I noticed a big change,” she dished to Health. “The crazy lesson was that your body tells you what it wants and needs; you just have to learn how to listen to it. It takes a while to learn that—it's hard. And what one woman needs isn't going to be the same as what another woman needs. We're all different.”
